Small highlights (almost) along the way. Some call it a detour, others a side trip and some a detour. For pleasure hikers, there are several detours on this stage that are well worth taking. The highest drinking water reservoir in Germany is a detour of around 1.7 kilometers. The church in Carlsfeld, which served as a model for the Frauenkirche in Dresden, can already be seen from the Kammweg. The 9.5-kilometre detour to the German Space Exhibition is a greater challenge.

On its last stages, the Vogtland Panorama Way® comes very close to the sky and the stars. Here it climbs the high Aschberg, here you are
truly outdoors – and it becomes wonderfully quiet, quieter than anywhere else on the Vogtland Panorama Way®. Only the sky and the fresh high-altitude air are
your companions.
